How i can explain 3 rows with 2 counters in each row?

It's worded a bit weirdly. But, i will answer it. You can explain 3 rows with 2 counters in each row like a number sentence. (3 x 2) You can also represent it with words such as: Bob has 6 counters. How many can he fit in in each row with 3 rows in total?

question 1 is 8, question 2 is 9, question 3 is 24

step-by-step explanation:

now, the numbers they give you at the top are the key. from there, you just have to plug and chug! let's try 1, 2, and 3!

key: a=3, b=5, c=6

1. a+5

remember, a=3, so we plug that in to get 3+5=8

2. 15-c

c=6, so we plug that in to get 15-6=9

3. 4b

b=6, so we plug it in to get 4*6=24

time to try the rest on your own! if you put the answers below in a comment, i'll check them for you!
